Description

Book Synopsis
This volume analyses major French plays of the 1830s, focusing on their theatricality, and on the ways in which they expose the workings of the theatre rather than conceal them. It breaks new ground in nineteenth-century theatre scholarship while proposing a fresh direction in the study of text and performance.
